Would it be useful/possible for the .configure tool to throw an error when
there is a mismatch between the OpenSSL version from it's header files and

until I specifically looked for conformance using "curl --version" and "ldd
curl".
It would be useful, but:
A) many people cross-compile and then it couldn't do that check
B) most of these problems (finding and using another lib in run-time than the
one configure detected) occur _after_ configure runs anyway, when you invoke
your things with an environment outside of configure.
